Hello,
I was reading an answer from the book Organic Chemistry by Brown et al. The question is 2.51 "Draw alternative chair conformations for each substituted cyclohexane and state which chair is more stable." There are then 4 cyclohexanes (labeled a-d). For the "a" cyclohexane, the substituents are arranged as a combination of axial and equatorial in both chair conformations. However, for the "b," "c," and "d," cyclohexanes one chair has only equatorial substituents, and the other chair has only axial substituents. Why is the "a" chair conformation different?

How do you account for the difference in energies between the two staggered conformations of 1,2-dichloroethane? How about for the two eclipsed conformations? Draw all four conformations and, on your drawing, indicate sources of strain – torsional, steric (gauche), steric eclipsed.
Draw Newman projections for the anti, eclipsed, gauche and fully eclipsed conformations of Butane. Indicate their relative stabilities and the reasons for your ranking-need to discuss the stresses involved in each case.
Using suitable specific conformers of specific structures as examples, explain the difference between (a) angle strain (b) torsional strain and (c) steric strain. Need to draw the confomers and structures
4) Draw the most stable conformers using chair structures of the following:
(c) cis-1,2-Dibromocyclohexane (d) trans-1,2-Dibromocyclohexane
(e) cis-Decalin (f) trans-Decalin
.
Draw the most stable conformers of trans-1-Bromo-4-methylcyclohexane and
cis-1-Bromo-4-methylcyclohexane. Which is more stable? Explain the reason for your answer. Need to include a discussion of 1,3-Diaxial interaction
